It’s not just one of those syrupy, Disney-style pieces of advice, it’s true – you should chase your dreams.  Take Gary Frost, for example. Not a lot of people know this (Gary being one of them) but he’s always wanted a career in modelling and he is busy following that dream.  He’s building a portfolio of pictures for his resumé and even hit the USA recently to tout his offerings.  

With the full support of Siobhan Russell (Happy Birthday!) and all of us in Myrtleville, here’s a few examples of Gary’s reach for the stars.  We support you all the way, Gary.

Firstly, one of the original poses – and many would say, still the best.  Cracks me up, every time.  Still no idea what he was doing.

Gary’s modelling focus is on the “man’s man” market.  Here’s a couple of his classic “cowboy needing a horse” or “gimme a guitar and I’ll headbang” straddle-shots.

As mentioned, Gary went Stateside recently to gauge the interest in his burgeoning career and made the time to get a pic taken with a celeb in Alcatraz.  The Hat, of course.  You’d have to wonder what the girl looking over in the background makes of it..

Just last weekend, Gary was showing he still has the legs for the market.  Despite comments from certain parties (ah, Denis, leave him alone) that over-40’s shouldn’t wear shorts, Gary was out and proud (from a knees perspective, we hasten to add).  The guy in the black plastic bag was just there for contrast.

Leaving no stone unturned in his quest, Gary has also begun to replicate famous movie scenes – to showcase his repertoire.  Here he is channeling Tom Hanks in Castaway, going after the fish with just a stick/spear.  You have to admire his dedication.

Keep chasing that dream, Gary.  Dulux could come calling soon for a younger market.  “Invincibles 2 – just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water…..”.

The members of the Secret Six Swimmers have been keeping their preparations very low-profile.  So low-profile, in fact, that many of their fellow swimmers don’t know they are preparing for a big event and those who do “know” are only repeating rumours they heard – mostly spread by Denis.  Unlike the regular updates on the activities of the Myrtle Turtles in 2016, the Six have shunned the limelight, thus far. 

Thankfully, however, they have now issued a press-release so the vacuum of news has been filled.  That’s a relief, as we here at the world’s leading news site for swimmy stuff nobody else has thought up yet, were about to make up something.  Heaven forbid.

Reading the clearly well-thought-out and highly-informative release, it might strike you that the Six aren’t quite prepared to share too much information as yet.  Redactions are as per the provided release, which was dropped in one of our reporters swim bag when he was distracted by cakes down at the beach.

So, now we know.  The Six are just soooo motivating.  Just fab.  Stay tuned.
